Orange County Schools closed; remote learning for CHCCS
Orange County Schools will be closed for students on Monday, the district said late Sunday afternoon.
All OCS schools and facilities will be closed. All athletic and after-school activities are also canceled.
There is no remote instruction for students on Monday.
OCS Transportation and Operations teams will continue to check area roads and prepare all the campuses to help schools reopen when deemed safe.
A decision for Tuesday will be announced as early as possible on Monday.
Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools
CHCCS will have a remote learning day on Monday.
Schools and offices will be closed to staffers and students.
So why not a true "snow day" instead of remote learning?
"We thought a lot about that," a district spokesperson wrote. "We do want kids to be kids and enjoy the "snow days" that a lot of adults experienced (or at least heard about!) growing up. But for this decision, we felt Saturday and Sunday were our region's "snow days", and that the best decision is to have a remote learning day. This way, we're not yet having to make disruptive changes to the school calendar later this year."
Since Monday is a remote-learning day, there will not need to be a makeup day.
No decision has been made about Tuesday.
